Streakly features
๐๏ธ Schedules that match real life
Every day, specific weekdays, or N times per week โ with an icon and color per habit.
๐ข Numeric goals
"8 glasses of water", "50 pushups" โ increment through the day; only hitting the goal completes it, partial counts still tracked.
๐ฅ A streak engine that's fair
Weekday-only habits survive the weekend, N-per-week habits count weekly quotas, and today doesn't break your streak just because it isn't done yet.
๐๏ธ Vacation mode
Skip days freeze your streaks instead of killing them.
๐ฉ GitHub-style heatmaps
A year heatmap per habit plus an all-habits month view with per-day dots.
โฐ Reminders
Native OS notifications at the times you choose.
๐ Stats + notes
Current & best streak, total completions, completion % over 30/90/365 days โ and a journal line on any check-in.
๐พ Your data is a JSON file
Human-readable, in your user folder โ JSON export/import for backup, CSV for spreadsheets. No network calls at all.
$15 once โ that's the whole pricing page

Honest answers
Is it really free on GitHub?
Yes โ MIT source at github.com/bensblueprints/habit-tracker-mvp. $15 buys the packaged Windows installer and updates.
Why is the streak engine "fair"?
Because most trackers punish you for their own bad math. In Streakly, a weekdays-only habit doesn't break over the weekend, an N-per-week habit counts weekly quotas across week boundaries, skip days freeze streaks, and an unfinished today never kills a streak prematurely. The engine is a pure zero-dependency module with its own test suite.
Is there a phone app or sync?
No โ Streakly is desktop-first with no cloud, which is exactly why it can promise zero network calls. Your entire history is one JSON file; sync it yourself via Dropbox, Drive or Syncthing if you want it on two machines. If phone-first tracking matters most, Habitify is the better fit.
